This one’s as notable for the “behind the scenes” as it is for the ghost itself.
Among the art supplies I recently stocked up on were ink refills for a couple of Copic markers that had gone dry. One was for C07 Cool Grey 7, and the other was for B06 Peacock Blue. The grey refilled and worked just fine, but the chisel nib on the blue marker still didn’t work even with added ink.
So not only did I learn how to refill markers, but I also learned how to change nibs.
The color scheme is a continuation of the idea that the ghosts look their best when the foreground and background are complementary hues. The contrast between the two background shades should be strong, but the foreground shades should be closer together. In that spirit, the background is YR68 Orange and YR61 Spring Orange (or on my very old marker, Yellowish Skin Pink). Regardless of name, I think the latter marker is going to need a refill soon.
The foreground is the recently refilled B06 Peacock Blue and B05 Process blue. Row 3 column 3 and row 5 column 3 were both drawn with the new chisel tip, which created darker squares than the rest of the Peacock ink applied with the marker’s original brush nib.
